According to pestbuda.hu, the 1st phase of the reconstruction of the City Park of Budapest, that extends over 100 hectares, is going to start soon. After thorough preworks, the City Park is going to be renewed based on the winner plan of the Garden Studio. They, together with the representatives of the park users, worked out the best plan possible by taking into consideration their requests as well.
The project was worked out by paying special attention to letting enough usable space in the park during the reconstruction processes. During the 1st period, they carry out the developments concerning the interest of blind people, nearby schools and the dog owners.
The reconstruction of the Garden of the Blind
Many people from the National Institute for the Blind in Budapest visit the nearby park, thus in the 1st phase of the rebuilding, they are going to renew the garden that is outdated and in very bad conditions and also add a new promenade to this area.
The request of the associations for the blind and visually impaired people was to preserve this closed area to serve their relaxation and recreation in a safe environment.
They further requested the repairment of the enclosing fence, the roads and the existing buildings. All of these requests were taken into consideration and are going to be remedied. What is more, a new playground is going to be built for the visually impaired children with several integrated games available to them.
New tracks for the nearby schools
In the framework of the renewal plan of the City Garden, based on the discussions made with the nearby schools, a new, easily accessible sport park is going to be constructed with a 200m running track, a long jump pit and 2 multifunctional tracks. The discussions shed light on the importance of building tracks for in-class PE runnings and PE tests to be able to provide the necessary sport field for the students. This area would provide the perfect venue for school PE classes but other visitors can also use the futur establishments.
